Merry Little Christmas Challenge Blog #18: Reindeer Bag

Hello crafty freinds!  Today is my 4 blog posts of the sister blogs.   This post is for MLCCB, where it's Christmas projects all year around.

Another Christmas bag, but this one has a cute reindeer I stamped on it.  The image is from Unity Stamps called, Let It Snow (I'm Ready).   I colored it with my Prismacolor pencils, added some embossing powder around it (which was difficult).

thanks for looking and reading :o)

Mix It Up Challenge Blog #33: Go Kart Birthday

Hello crafty friends!  4 post blog day.  This post is for MIUCB and this month we would like to see Paper Piecing in your projects.

This was a custom card that I made for someone's brother who races go karts.  The colors matched his go kart that he races.  I also changed the number to his number.  The image is from Polkadoodles: Go Karter

Doing these 3D paper piecing images, can be like a puzzle.  You have to figure out which pieces lay in front of the next piece or how many layers you really want.

There were 11 layers by the time I was done piecing each piece.  Lots of cutting and layering

Here is the inside of the card.  The sentiment is from the Polkadoodles Work and Play 2, which includes the image, sentiments and the banner paper I used.

Love to Craft! Challenge Blog #42: Steampunk Love Birthday

Hello crafty friends!  I'm here with my post for LTCCB. 

I was SO happy when someone asked me to make them a birthday card for their boyfriend and this was the image they picked.  I've loved this image and wanted to color it for a long time, just no time or reason to.   The artist is Jade Dragonne, the image Steampunk Boudoir.

The image was colored with my Prismacolor pencils.  I had to place a metal love label, since it was to her boyfriend.  Some gears and little grunge look to finish the card.

I used this sentiment on the top fold of the inside of the card.

Here is the bottom fold of the inside.

stamps: Jade Dragonne: Steampunk Boudoir, Unity: Nice Butt, Party All Day
paper: bazzill, recollections, MME: Four Miles Stripe
embellishments: bead landing: gears, the Paper Studio: lace, charm, Stampendous: embossing powder

Love to Scrap! Challenge Blog #129: Music Bags

Hello crafty friends!  Today is the 4 posts of the sister blogs, so sit back and be inspired. 

This is my post for LTSCB, this month "Anything Goes" . 

I'm always in the need for gift bags for different little items.  These are for some music lovers in my life.

I used 2 different Unity Stamps: Worn Music and Cassette Tape Tunes.  Staz-on ink and Memento Luxe ink for mixed media are wonderful for these bags.

On this bag, I decided to use the sentiment that came with the set.
